Stauf’s Last Stand
Description: Embraced originally from the early 1990’s PC titles The 7th Guest and The 11th Hour, old man Stauf is back in an immersive and incredible experience created exclusively for Quake III Arena.
Within these haunted rotting walls, the cackling demented toymaker Henry Stauf beckons your presence for one last round. Abolished are the tedious task of assembling pointless puzzles… the final hour has arrived, and its about drawing blood this time.
In its current state, the mansion is far from its sheer size and volume, such proportions would amount to massive latency of in-game play and, in part, being too large to render properly.
Only the prominent areas of the house were constructed, listed as below.
• Main Foyer
• Library
• Dining Room,
• Upper Hallway
• Game Room (expanded from the original)
• Attic (including an adjacent room)
Installation Instructions:
Enter Stauf’s domain… if you dare!
1. Using a decompression utility such as Stuffit Expander, WinRAR, Winzip, etc. extract the contents of stauf.zip into a temporary directory.
2. Move the following file labeled ‘stauf.pk3’ into your Quake III Arena/BaseQ3 directory. (Note: You must have/obtain the retail copy of Quake III Arena to play this level.)
3. Startup Quake III Arena, and click on Single Player.
4. Once presented with the traditional tier screen, click on the “Skirmish” button located in the center/bottom portion of the screen.
